BS1 & John Roman – Dumbbell / Barbell (incl. Free DL)

BS1 and John Roman in collaboration?! Hell yeah this is a first class combination like the result – two massive originals. The man from Canada and the Italian duo really don’t need some kind of introduction. Both tracks Dumbbell and Barbell are tremendous, you know I love and support it, that’s why it is here on my page. But to get a little insight, here’s what the Blood Music label-head Fake Blood said about Dumbbell, my personal favourite:

“A low-slung roller, propelled along by dusty hi-hats, meaty claps, and a heavy kick. The main riff is a percussive rallying call played on metallic logs, the intensity gradually rising with the sound of an alien bird trapped inside a train.”

… and last but not least, the remix of Dumbbell by London based LeBreton:

“The Jersey boy lifts the tempo a little, bouncing the broken bell around a pinball machine of his trademark drumwork, and a corrugated bass that sounds like you’re standing inside a game of Space Invaders.”
